I created a Wiki for fleshing out the Web 2.0 patterns that emerged at the workshop: http://patternrefinery.com/ The workshop's attendees should have received an email with their login information. Anybody else who attended TOOLS and would like to contribute needs to contact me about getting on the Wiki.

@Jordi Cabot: I discovered Crowdvine at a social media conference. In that community many people use it to foster networking at this type of events. Too bad it didn't get traction at TOOLS (at least so far). Maybe after Euro 2008 :)
It is the first time I see this kind of social networking site in a conference.
Even if few people has login in the site I still think it is a good idea so thanks Dragos for that.
Maybe it is just that we need more time to get used to it
@Richard Paige: Hello Richard,
I have just realized that you did your PhD with Ric Hehner. Ric is now sitting just two offices away from me (though I do not work in collaboration with him right now). Funny.
The workshop schedule comprises presentations, brainstorming, and pattern mining sessions spread over 2 days. It is now available from the workshop's web site: http://labs.live.com/Web+20+Pattern+M...
@Dragos Manolescu: On Sunday (June 29) the final game of the European football championships (www.euro2008.com) will start at 8.45pm. Zürich is one of the host cities and it will be very crowded that night. I can recommend you to visit the fanzone (http://en.euro2008.uefa.com/countries/cities/city=3241/fanzones/index.html) an the fanmile between Bellevue and Central (even if you are not really interested in soccer)!
Workshop preparation: answer the following questions for this web 2.0 sites.
1. What user situations do flicker user typically face? preparation task: find an image to illustrate your workshop presentation.
2. What navigation patterns did you find to solve this task?
3. Where would have preferred to use another pattern?
This website adds another navigation pattern to wikipedia. What other patterns would helpful to browse wiki content?
Example websites for navigation patterns:
- http://www.piclens.com
- http://www.touchgraph.com
- http://audiomap.tuneglue.net
- http://developer.yahoo.com/ypatterns ( navigation, browsing and selection patterns)
@Michael Mahemoff: I too liked the Ajax book Dragos mentioned.
I think Ruby is cool but I'd also like to look at Erlang in the near future :-). I was impressed by a talk that Joe Armstrong gave at JAOO last year.
Is there anybody interested in getting together Sunday (June 29) evening? At least a couple of us will arrive to ZRH prior to the conference. It's been 13 years since I've been to Turicum so suggestions about potential venues are welcome.
@Michael Mahemoff: Ajax Design Patterns is the best patterns book I read in a while. I look forward to your joining us at the workshop!
The online program showed the Web 2.0 pattern mining workshop as a 1-day event. That was an error: the workshop starts Monday and wraps up on Tuesday--a 2-day event. It has been fixed--thanks Richard and Marco!
Welcome to the social site for TOOLS Europe 2008! Anybody attending the conference could register here. In fact, I highly recommend it.
I created this site to facilitate networking: it lets one identify in advance the people they'd like to meet. It also allows others to learn about those registered, and signal whether they are interested in meeting in person.
The system has network effect. Please register early to foster the formation of social networks at the conference. Feel free to suggest other questions that you'd like the participants to answer when registering.
